dato\sh_away: if you really uploaded amarok 1.3.1 to breezy, note that it comes without alsasink support, which may or may not be what you want.06:07
=== \sh_away is now known as \sh
dato(mentioning because I thought kubuntu used gstreamer/alsa by default)06:08
\shwhat?06:09
\shamarok?06:09
datoyes, bicbw.06:09
\shgstreamer/alsa is not in 1.3.1 anymore...they removed it, cause it caused problems..06:10
\shplease read upstream changelog06:10
\shgstreamer/alsa is back in latest svn..i don't know if they are building it in again06:10
Riddell\sh: data knows :)  that's what he's trying to tell you06:11
Riddell\sh: dato pacakges amarok for debian06:11
Riddells/data/dato/06:11
\shuh...06:11
\shsry06:11
\shI'm just a bit p*ssed, cause all the people wanted to see amarok 1.3.x in ubuntu..now they have it, and are complaining 06:12
Riddell\sh: what complaints have you been getting?06:12
\shsabdfl owes me a beer because of this06:12
datobasically, what I'm trying to say is that breeze will ship without alsasink being available for amarok, and with autosink and gconfsink making it crash (if I read bug traffic correctly). which, is alsasink is used by many people, is bad.06:13
\shriddell: audiocdslave not installed or not depending, no khelpcenter depends, mem leaks...all things i don't understand06:13
dato\sh: oh, out of curiosity, sabdfl asked for amarok 1.3.1 in breezy?06:13
\shhe read the MLs and asked why we don't have it..so I said to him, ok test it, and i packaged it...so he tested it, said, ok upload...and mdz agreed06:13
\shwithout this, we wouldn't have 1.3.106:14
datoI see06:14
datowell, just wanted to point out the bit above06:14
\shdato: well...xine engine works quite nicley...gstreamer works with audiocds (if you have audiocd slave installed ;)) so it's ok with me06:14
\shdato: the rest will come with dapper06:15
datook06:17
\shbut...06:17
datoI was also a bit curious why an unoffcial version was imported into ubuntu when higher versions where in the archive, but it's not important. just curious, as I said.06:17
\shwhile u r here ;) can u have a look on a special bug i closed today..06:17
datowhich bug?06:17
\shdato: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1561706:18
\shi mean that amarok is not easy on memory, everybody should know..but I don't see the memleak they're talking about06:18
Riddelldato: which unofficial version was imported into ubuntu?06:20
\sh1.3.1 is official right?06:20
datoRiddell: uh, sorry if I alarmed you. by unofficial I meant from my people.d.o directory06:20
\shdato: u mean the debian/* stuff?06:21
datoyep06:21
\shhmmm..riddell pointed me to your svn :)06:21
\shblame him :)06:21
=== \sh uns
\shruns even06:22
Riddellah, 1.3.0-0precxxabi1 when 1.3.1 is in debian.  that'll be my fault06:22
\shanyways...doesn't matter right now06:22
datoRiddell: yeah, that.06:22
datook, won't take more time from you, I was just curious.06:22
\shdato: i think we will sync it during the next release cycle06:23
datosure06:23
Riddellthere's a tradition of screwing up the amarok packaging in ubuntu, look at that epoch :)06:23
\shoh crap yes..we can't sync it...we have to merge it by hand..damn06:23
datoheh, I see06:24

_tonioHi everyone06:35
_tonioRiddell: you asked for bugs on knetworkconf, I inform you incase you still don't know that switching to administrator mode still doesn't work06:35
Riddell_tonio: same old problem, hopefully I'll get a ch06:37
Riddellchance to look at it this week06:37
Riddells/hopefully/damn well better/06:38
_tonioRiddell: and concerning the default route and subnet bugs . did you manage to find the solution ?06:39
=== dato [n=adeodato@debian/developer/adeodato] has left #kubuntu-devel ["bye"]
Riddell_tonio: I havn't looked at them, could you report to bugzilla06:40
_toniodone 20times :)06:43
_tonioit seems to be a problem wil many debian based distros like mepis or xandros06:44
_tonioRiddell: ArkLinux I think have done a patch, mayvbe you could put it I don't know ;)06:44
Riddellarklinux is redhat based06:44
Riddellso probably wouldn't work06:45
\sharklinux is bero06:45
\shisn't it?06:45
Riddellyes06:46
RiddellI don't hear much from him/arklinux06:47
\shi worked together with bero when he was still at redhat...and me too :)06:47
\shhehe...was quite fun, seeing him working on kde on the linux console :)06:48
Riddell\sh: you worked at red hat?06:48
\shyes...2001 redhat europe...web marketing and engineering for Redhat EMEA06:49
_tonioRiddell: maube it is not ark..... I have found a working deb with modifications, let me check one second06:49
_tonioRiddell: ASLinux have done a a patch apparently06:53
_toniohttp://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=3909806:53
_tonioand a correct deb is available06:53
_toniomaybe that could be applyed to yours i don't know06:54
_tonio;)06:54
Riddell_tonio: can you try it out to confirm it fixes it?06:56
_tonioI can06:57
_toniolet me 10 minutes06:57
Riddellyou may have to recompile06:58
_tonioyep06:58
_toniowhat would be interesting is to extract the patch and applied to your maybe06:58
_tonioI will first recompile and let you know ;)06:58
Riddellknetworkconf in kubuntu is already patched to hell06:58
Riddellwith a branch patch06:59
_toniolol okay ;) that app does seem to be very buggy, I can't understand it hasn't been done before by the kde team...... configuring the network is a must have in my view !06:59
Riddellmost distros have their own tools07:00
apokryphosRiddell: btw, I forgot to mention, it _is_ the same patch as the one I linked to (for rubberband). Annoying; they have it so smooth!07:05
_toniohum designed to work on kde 3.3 ->not sure it will work there.... and I don't find the source package07:06
_toniosh**t07:06
Riddellapokryphos: actually I'm surprised at the lack of complaints I've had about rubberband07:06
_tonioisn't there another tool that could act as a replacement for knetworkconf ?07:06
Riddell_tonio: not that I know of07:06
_toniodamn ;)07:07
_tonioRiddell: i imagine you would get hapy to find that out ;)07:07
apokryphosRiddell: It's reasonably perfect for smaller selections (and faster on the desktop), but cripples for bigger ones. Mind you, I'd still personally have it (as it is) of course07:07
_tonioRiddell: unable to find the sources for that package..... I may send a PM to the poster asking him for the diff extraction and let you know ;) We just can hope that it'll be fixed with kde 3.5 since kdenetworkconf will be part of it...07:29
Riddellknetworkconf get very little review in kdereview, I wish I'd had time for a clo07:30
Riddellcloser look07:30
_tonioRiddell: i just know that kdenetworkconf is the only this that sounds crappy in my breezy installation, the rest is like a charm ;)07:32
Riddell_tonio: how is kaffeine?07:34
_toniofine to me07:35
_toniowith gstreamer you mean ? it works great ;)07:35
_tonionot as much configuration optios that with xine of course shince the integration is very new but that's okay Riddell  ;)07:35
_toniojust one thing, it was completly crashing when I updated to breezy07:36
_tonioI had to create a new profile and then it was okay07:37
Riddellhmm, bit like amarok07:48

apokryphosRiddell: KPackage in default Breezy install? Interesting to see. Though, it still needs patching, really =)09:20
Riddellapokryphos: it's not09:20
apokryphoswas casually ignored when I mentioned that in ubuntu-bugs ;-), and Malone wouldn't let me report a bug on it for some reason09:20
Riddellapokryphos: did you do a dist-upgrade?09:21
apokryphosok, just currently? It's needed that sudo patch for ages though :P09:21
apokryphosyup09:21
apokryphos(on another Computer, with a plain default Hoary install)09:21
RiddellI wonder why people pick up on kpackage09:22
Riddellapokryphos: is there a patch available?09:22
apokryphosI don't like it that much (it's my favourite when I venture into GUI though; I think it *could* be good)09:23
apokryphosI doubt there is; not many distros default with sudo 8)09:23
apokryphosDo you know what I'm referring to, btw? Raised some time ago, as I recall. It's currently made to look/ask for the root pass09:24
Riddellyes09:26
Riddellbut it's not a priority 09:26
Riddellkiosk is more of a priority09:27

\shRiddell: again rebuild of python-qt3?10:13
Riddell\sh: kde-guidance/libpythonize wasn't working, a rebuild fixed it10:15
\shRiddell: ok..u think we need to rebuild python-kde3 as well?10:15
Riddell\sh: hopefully not, it was just a small error in py.so (userconfig worked fine but kcmshell userconfig didn't so libpythonize doing strange things)10:17
Riddellbut do test it out please :)10:17
\shRiddell: yeah...because this sip stuff is quite nasty sometimes...and upstream is not really well documenting all the changes and the connections between sip4-qt3 and sip4-kde :(10:18
